See what some WestFair members have to say about the benefits of membership:

"IABC provides me with access to a broad network of communications professionals in a variety of disciplines. In addition to the array of training programs, I have ongoing opportunities to interact and develop relationships with creative, thoughtful people."  
– Peter Burger , NY/IABC, Writer and Brand Strategist, Ernst & Young
 
"I started attending IABC meetings more frequently after becoming an independent consultant. I figured the networking opportunities would be helpful in marketing myself and sharing experiences with other independents. I ended up reconnecting with a former boss and I discovered that he was also an independent. We shared our experiences, kept in touch, and eventually he called me to partner on a project. I don't know that I would have had the opportunity to reconnect with this person if not for our mutual interest in the IABC. In addition, I've met many members who are interested in becoming independents, and I find that I am able to mentor them. Once they discover that I'm an independent, they immediately want to pick my brain! It's very flattering, and I'm so happy to help."
